OSSCC Club Hike

Where: Mill Race Trail (St. Jacobs)

Monday, December 5, plan to join Bett and the crew for an enjoyable fall hike!

Contact: Email Bett Fitzpatrick, bettfitzpatrick@gmail.com, if you plan to join us.

Please add her cell # 519-208-3408 to your phone contacts in case of delays or last-minute cancellations.

 Time: 10:00 am

Hike Location: Mill Race Trail, 33 Front Street, St. Jacobs. There is construction in the area, but the trail is accessible. Turn right into the big parking lot next to Saliente Wood Designs (yellow building) and the Caboose (ice cream place in summer).

Duration: 4 km out-and-back, approximately 1 ½ hours

Come join us for this delightful, gentle walk on the Mill Race Trail, known locally as “Lovers Lane”! The trail is an easy, level, stone-dust trail that parallels the mill race diversion of the Conestogo River from the old 1850s Snyder Mill (the first mill in St. Jacobs), upstream to the dam at Three Bridges Rd. west of the village.

There’s also the option, on the return, to lengthen the hike by turning at the overhead railway trestle and adding on part of the Health Valley Trail. Others may choose to shop or lunch in town or enjoy a coffee and scone at Ecocafe. Either way, it’ll be a great hike, and we look forward to having you join us!

Come prepared!

 Dress for a cold morning; wear sturdy footwear with good grip, and pack icers in the event of snow; bring drinks for hydration, and, of course, snacks for elevenses at the dam. A backpack is useful to stash surplus clothing once we get moving and warm up!
